Michigan coach John Beilein says his team needed opportunity to grow from a loss, after defeat to Wisconsin in Madison, Wisc. on Jan. 19, 2019.
MADISON, Wis. — John Beilein doesn't lose his temper often.
Michigan basketball's head coach will get frustrated. But it's rare to see him as apoplectic as he was Saturday afternoon with less than a minute left in No. 2 Michigan's 64-54 loss to Wisconsin.
Trailing by three with 59 seconds left, the Wolverines were trying to intentionally foul Wisconsin star Ethan Happ — a 49 percent free-throw shooter entering the game.
